Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: B
[Verse]
Abm Abm7 F9 Bbm7 Eb7
I dreamed last night, I got on the boat to heaven
Abm7 Db7 A6 Amaj7
And by some chance, I had brought my dice along
Ebm7 Abm Bbm7 A7
And there I stood, and I hollered "Somebody fade me!"
Abm7 Db7 Gb7sus4 G7
But the passengers all knew right from wrong
[Chorus]
B B7 E E7
For the people all said sit down
B Abm Dbm Gb7 B
Sit down, you're roc kin' the boat
B E
The people all said sit down
E B
Sit down you're rockin' the boat
[Bridge]

And the devil will drag you under
E Dbm Eb E7 B
By the sharp lapel of your checkered coat
E7 B E
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
Gb G B Eb7
Sit down you're rockin' the boat
[Verse]
Abm7 F9 Bbm7 Eb7
I sailed away, on that little boat to heaven
Abm7 Db7 Gbm7 B7
And by some chance, found a bottle in my fist
Bm Ebm7 Emaj7 Em7 Dbm7 A7
And there I stood, nicely pas sin' out the whisky
Abm7 G7 Gb7
But the passengers were bound to resist
[Chorus]

For the people all said "Beware
B Db
You’re on a heavenly trip."
B Abm E
The people all said "Be ware
B Gb B
Beware, you'll scuttle the ship!"
[Bridge]
B Abm7 E
And the devil will drag you under
E Dbm B E
By the fancy tie 'round your wicked throat
B G
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
Gb B Eb7
Sit down, you're rockin' the boat
[Verse]
Ab7 Abm7 Fm Gbm7 Eb7
And as I laughed at those passengers to heaven
Abm7 Db7 Gbm Gb
A great big wave came and knocked me overboard!
Bb7 Ebm7 Emaj7 E Bbm7 A7
And as I sank, and I hollered "Someone save me!"
Abm7 G7
That's the moment I woke up
Gb7 G
Thank the Lord!
[Verse]
B E A
And I said to myself, sit down
B Dbm Gb
Sit down, you're rockin' the boat

I said to myself sit down
B Gb7 B
Sit down, sit down you're rockin' this boat
[Bridge]
Fm E
And the devil will drag you under
E Dbm Eb7 E A
With a soul so heavy you'd never float

Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down

Sit down, stop rockin' the boat
